The Galaxy S2 formed part of an iconic visual style of its time
and place, following on from the Apple iPhone, it kept the trend of a more
angular and slab-like shape, with slightly softened corners and a svelte 8.5mm
profile.

Although visual trends are now changing it's a design that still
looks contemporary a year later. Chrome accents provide a bit of contrast to
the black bodywork and the back panel features a nice textured, mesh-like
surface.Samsung is known for using durable plastics, meaning we know the Galaxy
S2 isn't going to fall apart any time soon, but the handset does have a
slightly cheap feel for a premium model, particularly on the back panel.Samsung's
successor model, the Galaxy S3, likewise follows the trends of its classmates,Samsung
said the design was inspired, in part, by ‘pebbles' which is evident in the
more curved shape over all.We can also see a hint of Galaxy Nexus in there as
well. Interestingly, the handset doesn't have a conventional black option;
colour choices are either blue or white.Like its predecessor, the Galaxy S3
features a physical home button and capacitive ‘back' and ‘menu' controls,
meaning Samsung has chosen to forego Android Ice Cream Sandwich's on-screen
touch controls.We mentioned earlier Samsung's use of plastics and this has
extended to the Galaxy S3. The problem here, however, is that unlike HTC,
Samsung hasn't opted for a high-quality matte finish plastic. The bodywork has
a very tacky and cheap feel; it's extremely shiny despite its brushed texture
and shows up finger prints quite a lot.

We were expecting Samsung to improve on the Galaxy S2's cheap
plastic feel given that this was a common criticism in the past, but if
anything it actually feels worse which is a big disappointment.

Apart from this it looks great in our view, we really like the
shape, the size is not far off the original Galaxy S2 as Samsung has crammed a
larger screen into a similarly-sized bodyshell, and the colour choices are
refreshingly different.

In terms of appearance, we think the Galaxy S3 wins here, though
the Galaxy S2 still looks good. On build quality we have to say the Galaxy S2
still reigns. We have to call this one a draw.

DisplaySamsung's Galaxy S2 is fitted with a 4.3-inch
Super AMOLED Plus capacitive multi-touch display, featuring Corning Gorilla
Glass, an 800x480 pixel resolution and a pixel density of 217 pixels-per-inch
(ppi). Although it's not top dog anymore, this is still one of the better
displays on the market being very sharp, bright and vivid with rich colours and
good contrast.

The Galaxy S3 is a considerable upgrade, however. Samsung has
managed to squeeze a massive 4.8-inch screen into a body not much bigger than
the Galaxy S2. Not only that, it uses Samsung's Super AMOLED HD technology for
an improvement over the Galaxy's visual quality.

The resolution is an impressive 1280x720 pixels and churns out a
pixel density of 306ppi, which, for a screen of this size, is quite an
achievement. Samsung has used Corning's Gorilla Glass 2 technology so it's just
as strong as the original Gorilla Glass but considerably thinner, a factor
which helps keep the device slimmer overall.

Colour depth, contrast and brightness are all great here, while it
may not be the sharpest display on the market it is way up there as one of the
better ones and with a pixel density over 300ppi most users will probably
struggle to notice the difference from other high quality screens.

StorageSamsung is consistently quite generous when it
comes to both internal and external storage space, a factor we appreciate. Both
the Galaxy S2 and Galaxy S3 come in 16GB and 32GB variants for internal capacity,
while the Galaxy S3 has a further 64GB option. All variants of each handset
have 1GB of RAM and micro SD capability for cars up to 32GB in capacity.

ProcessorLike many other areas of the Galaxy S2's build, the processor is
an element which is still competitive and viable on today's smartphone market.
It boasts a dual core ARM Cortex-A9 processor running Samsung's own Exynos 4210
chipset clocked at 1.2GHz with a Mali-400MP graphics processing unit (GPU) in
tow.

Performance is silky smooth and
you should have no problems running even the most intensive games and apps or
demanding levels of multi-tasking.

The Galaxy S3 is Samsung's first
quad core smartphone. It's still running ARM Cortex-A9 cores, although of course
there are now four of them, but this is on the company's new Exynos 4212 chip
clocked at 1.4GHz.

It still uses the same Mali-400MP
GPU as its predecessor, but we can understand why, it's a good graphical
powerhouse and there's no good reason to change it.

From our brief time with the
Galaxy S3 we found performance to be flawless, somewhat unusual for display
models of even premium handsets at big launch events.

Operating SystemNow that the Galaxy S2 has been updated to the latest Android
build, version 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich , these phones are both on the same
platform. With Samsung's TouchWiz interface on top you'll broadly get a similar
user experience with both.

However, it's worth mentioning
that the Galaxy S3 has a few extra tricks up its sleeve with Samsung's
‘intelligence' features.

This includes things like the
phone being able to sense when you put the phone to your ear while typing a
text, it'll take this as a cue to call the person you're texting. Smart Stay is
a feature which uses the front-facing camera to detect when you're viewing the
screen or looking away, the phone will appropriately toggle the screen on or
off accordingly.

Keeping in trend with the iPhone
4S's Siri voice assistant, the Galaxy S3 includes a new take on voice control
with S-Voice, which will allow you to do a variety of things, such as
activating the camera by saying ‘I want to take a picture', or taking the phone
out of standby mode by saying ‘Wake up'.

This is also configurable to an
extent, for example you could make the phone wake up when you say ‘Wake up
buddy,' or similar phrases.

The Galaxy S3 includes a range of
unique features in this vein, but whether they'll actually be useful in
practice is something which remains to be seen. A lot of fuss was made over
Siri, after all, but since the iPhone 4S's launch plenty of cracks have started
to show.

CameraBoth handsets run 8-megpixel primary cameras with back-illuminated
sensors (BSI) and resolutions of 3264x2448 pixels. Features shared by both
devices include an LED flash, geo-tagging, autofocus, touch focus, face and
smile detection and image stabilization. Both also capture video at 1080p.

The Galaxy S3 distinguishes
itself with some extra features including the HTC One range's ability to
capture simultaneous HD video and still images, and a rapid multi-shot capable
of taking 3.3 photos per second with virtually no shutter lag. It also has the
ability to pick the best photo from a cluster and to automatically detect
friends' faces in pictures via social networking.

The Galaxy S2 features a video
light. Both phones have 2-megapixel secondary cameras with video calling
capability, the Galaxy S3's can capture in 720p HD.

Samsung's latest Galaxy carries a
lot more cuff in terms of features and the image quality we saw was striking.

Well coming to the verdict guys if u really have money in your
pocket go opt for this fantastic upgrade. By that time let us know your views
about us

With the shutter
now publicly lifted from iphone 4 ,hoards of APPLE followers have now
ready plans to ditch their worn of 3Gs model and move on to next iteration. But
if you are not wearing heart-shaped locket with Steve Jobs inside,does the move
to Iphone 4 creates sense? where previous iphone release have towered over with
competition every way, this year release face more stiff
outer competition then ever by.Does Apple still have what it takes
to reign supreme in smartphone battle? so we stacked iphone 4 side by side to
those of its intimidating competition, its HTC Android powered EVO 4G...to find
out...

Display:

The HTC EVO boasts of a much larger display
screen (4.3" compared to 3.5" on iPhone 4). However, iPhone 4 comes
with a far superior 960x640 pixel "Retina display", which is the
highest resolution among the current crop of smartphones.

Processor:

Apple has built-in their in-house A4 processor
chip in the new iPhone, which can apparently clock 1GHz of processor speed.
While HTC EVO's Snapdragon processor too clocks the same speed, it needs to be
noted that handset manufacturers routinely clock down the speed in order to
boost the battery life. We

may not be able to comprehensively judge the
performance of the two processors at the moment as we still don't know at what
speed iPhone 4's A4 processor is running.

Storage:

Both the devices offer storage of up to 32GB.
iPhone 4 comes in two versions offering 16GB and 32GB of storage. On the other
hand, HTC EVO 4G comes with a 8GB microSD card that is expandable up to 32GB.

Network:

Like iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 too will work over
3G network. In comparison, HTC EVO 4G shall run on Sprint's 4G network, which
is a lot faster. However, we need to note that the 4G network is still not
available in large parts of the country and hence may not be a determining
factor for a majority of the customers.

Camera:

Both iPhone 4 and HTC EVO come with a
front-facing and a rear-facing camera each. The rear-side camera on the iPhone
4 is equipped with a 5-megapixel CMOS. HTC EVO on the other hand, comes with a
much higher 8-megapixel rear-side camera. However, as we have noted in the
past, a higher megapixel on the camera sensor does not necessarily imply better
quality images.

Video Recording:

Both the smartphones allow users to capture HD
video. The iPhone 4 however captures videos at a marginally higher
frames-per-second and also includes video editing functionalities.

Video Conferencing:

Again, thanks to the front-facing camera, both
the devices allow video conferencing. iPhone 4 users may use the natively
supported FaceTime app for Wi-Fi based video conferencing. HTC EVO users will
need to purchase the Qik app that is available for $5. A basic version of the
app is also available for free at the Android marketplace. Video conferencing
on HTC EVO may be carried out over the carrier's 3G or 4G network apart from
Wi-Fi.

Battery Life:

An improved battery life has been one of the
most significant improvements in iPhone 4. Apple claimsthat iPhone 4 will
provide a talk time of 7 hours on 3G and close to 14 hours on 2G. HTC EVO 4G in
comparison offers only up to 6 hours of talk time.

Operating System:

iPhone 4 will come pre-installed with Apple's
new iOS 4.0 that includes more than 100 new features while HTC EVO 4G currently
comes installed with Android 2.1. However, it should soon get the Android 2.2
update that was unveiled by Google recently, which brings new features such
Adobe Flash 10.1, Wi-Fi Hotspot etc.

Price:

AT&T has retained the older iPhone 3GS price point for iPhone
4. Users can purchase the 16GB and 32GB iPhone 4 model at $199 and $299
respectively when it goes on sale on June 24. On the other hand, HTC EVO 4G is
already available with Sprint at $199 after a $100 mail-in rebate. Both the
plans come with a two-year contract period.

An exciting
article to look on. Till now this is known to a very few users of Facebook.
Your Facebook account has three passwords. Yup right! Three
passwords. Facebook uses this, to avoid login errors which are generally caused
by keeping CAPS lock on while entering password. You can log in to your
Facebook account by three passwords, one which is generated by you and
another which are generated by Facebook itself, toggling the case
of characters.

Let’s
understand this with help of example.

Password
1 (User Generated)

Say you have
password for your Facebook account as

Doll@Party

Here the
characters D.P are in upper case and all other characters are in lower
case. This is your first and own generated password. You always use this.
The remaining two passwords which are generated by Facebook are as
Follows.

Password
2 (Altering cases)

The second
password can be obtained by altering the case of characters. That means, you
simply replace all upper case characters by lower and all lower case characters
by upper. Put your password at Facebook login screen and hit enter. You will be
logged in.

dOLL@pARTY

Here in
above image you can clearly see that case is inverted. d.p of password is in
lower case while the remaining characters are in upper case. Facebook creates
this password to avoid login error which are caused due to leavingCAPSlock on while entering the password. So if
your password is “Doll@Party

” then you
can also use “dOLL@pARTY

” for
logging in.

Password
3 (For mobile only)

As lots of
users use Facebook from mobile also, Facebook creates a special
password for mobile device. For mobile device, Facebook do not consider case of
first character. Whatever it may be, in lower case or in upper case, Facebook
will log on you to your account.

Doll@PaRtY

Since many
mobile phone automatically capitalizes the first character of the password.
This may lead to log in errors. Here as shown in above image, even if your
password is “Doll@Party

”, then you
can use “Doll@PaRtY

” while
logging in to your Facebook account.

You may try
these variations with your own password on the Facebook login screen available
at facebook.com. Except this three, non of the other variation can be used
for logging in purpose.

According
to Facebook:

We
accept three forms of the user’s password to help overcome the most common
reasons that authentic logins are rejected. In addition to the original
password, we also accept the password if a user inadvertently has caps lock
enabled or their mobile device automatically capitalizes the first character of
the password.

Thus, if
you have accidentally enabled CAPS Lock
on the keyboard, the toggled password would still work on Facebook. By that
time keep visiting us….

Is Windows Phone starting to present the iPhone a run for
its money in China? Microsoft thinks so.

Making its debut among Chinese consumers just two months
ago, Windows Phone has already picked up a market share of 7 percent, according
to Microsoft. That's a spot elevated than the 6 percent carve up owned by
Apple's iPhone.

"We've only just begun," Bel said, considering that
the blend of smartphones and Windows PC tablets will help Microsoft put on
further grip amid both Chinese individuals and businesses. Such an approach
will come in clever due to the increasing consumerization of IT, he added.

But the company tackles a mounting clash, Bel admitted.
Android currently dominates China with a market share of around 69 percent. And
Windows Phone is still far behind in the app pitch compared with Google's
mobile OS.

Microsoft currently employs around 2,500 people in its
R&D department in China, but Bel says the company requires investing more profoundly
in the country.

Related stories says that Microsoft hopes Windows Phone
summit can shrink the app gap, Microsoft offers Windows phones to Android haters,
Windows Phone has received a shot in the arm in certain parts of the world, thanks
to Nokia's Lumia handsets. The Lumia 900 has proven to be a hot commodity in
the United States but has seen more sluggish demand in other countries, notably
the U.K.

So hope just everything goes well with windows, as they try
to achieve higher, till then you keep subscribing us!!!!!

Based on Casey’s Contraptions, Rovio
Entertainment will be launching a puzzle game “Amazing Alex”. The idea of the game is
more or less the same as its Elder Brother “Angry Birds”.

The Game consists of various Locations in Alex’s life where
he has to conquer certain objectives through proper placing of objects and then
letting things roll. The level objective may be to block the balloon to fly
off, bursting the balloon, depositing the tennis ball in the basket etc.
Additional objective is to collect as much stars possible on the way.

Rovio has gone off the much awaited series of Angry Birds
into something new of a franchise. The game looks much challenging (in the
further levels) and at the same time has a more number of educational points
attached to it!
